I wrote this hook to persist a simple user settings (think dark mode) to local storage in a cross-tab compatible way.

useStorage React Hook

Similar to useState but with some lightweight behind-the-scenes writing to localStorage; also subscribes to changes in localStorage to allow for cross-tab changes to sync automatically.

Example Usage

The first argument is the name of the local storage property/key you want to control with this hook. The second argument, options, really just has one available directive: bool. Setting bool to true has the effect of evaluating the data

Non-blocking iFrame loads, because Vimeo embeds are slow to load, and iFrames block onLoad firing (and thus negatively impact pageload measurements).

Quick and dirty way to find DOM elements that are breaking your vertical baseline grid.
$('div,p,section,header,footer,ul,ol,li').each(function(){
var h, el, baseline;
el = $(this);
height = el.outerHeight();
baseline = 13;
if (Math.round(height) % baseline > 0) {
el.addClass('boink');
console.log( height, this );
